Topic: RE: Is this NORMAL?
The only Gas X that helps me is the chewable gas tablets. None of the others work and I have to take more than 2 sometimes. I dont know if this is a good thing or not to be doing but it does help sometimes. I found the Target brand MUCH cheaper and in chewable form, 100 tablets for less than 3 bucks
Salads did that to me pre op, so I stay away from salad. Wish i could help more.

Topic: Is this NORMAL?
Hey Yall...
I have a question:
Ever since last month, I've been dumping on just about EVERYTHING I eat, and the bloating/gas pains are growing WORSE. Tonight, after eating salad for lunch & dinner with 2oz chicken on top each meal, my belly is hard as a rock and feels as if I could explode. I know it's gas because I can feel it moving and I can get rid of some of it
My main concern is: the farther out you go, the more you dump? Also, I'm VERY lactose intolerant now, but continue drinking my CC milk, yogurt and pudding (all not on a daily basis)...could this contribute to the main gassy problem? OTC gas pills won't phase me.
Any suggestions or advice or have you experienced this, too?
Thanks yall
Beth
Topic: RE: Anybody wanna three-way?
You know I would normally, but I'm going back to bed. This medicine, while it didn't make me sleep much, will make me sleep a little more if I go back to bed, I think. I am so desperate for sleep...my poor body...that I need to heed its call and take care of myself, so there will be some Joni left to have WLS.
I don't wanna die a loser. I want to live as a LOSER!
Love you!
Joni who thinks the puppy should be named Joni...unless it has a winkie. However, since Teann was talking to you when you saw it, you should name it Teann.
You should post a photo of it so we can email you name suggestions.
Topic: OT: Il Divo
Anyone ever heard Il Divo? Man, I LOVE this new CD I got! It's like Andrea Bocelli sort of.
It's 4 Italian guys singing in Italian. I LOVE that!
I love slow, soothing music.
Anyway, just wanted to know if anyone shared my love for this group's music.
It also came with a DVD that has a few of the videos. I don't have a DVD player though, so can'****ch it. Someday....
Love,
Joni who is awake briefly...hopefully it's briefly.
Topic: Anybody wanna three-way?
I am going to take a shower and get ready for bed and then I'm ready to chit chat.... Any takers on a three-way call???

P.S. I HAVE A NEW PUPPY!!!!!!! My little Sugar Pie (shihtzu) and Mr. Lil Buddy are the proud parents of a baby boy (i think it has a winkie, haven't checked to closely yet). The bouncing baby was born at approx 11:30 this morning. I thought there would be more but will settle for just one since I know I will not be able to give it away!!!!!!! Now I have to think of a good name.
I talked to Joni today and she said she was worried about me because she didn't think I had enough animals... Can you imagine 12 not being enough!!!! Now I have 13!!!!!!!! I was having a really bad day and feeling REALLY REALLY down and was talking to Teann on the phone about how I was feeling when I heard the little whimpers of the newborn pup. It changed my whole outlook today! God musta been watching me closely and knew that I needed a pick-me-up!
Whew, long P.S.! Love ya'll
Gone to shower

Topic: RE: Hey Nurses
Hey Lindy,
I've never seen that before. We usually say NKDA meaning no known drug allergies or we just say ALLERGIES then list what they are. There may be something I haven't heard of. We also use ABX or ABT for antibiotics.
I hope that helped something.

Topic: RE: Secret Shoppers
Dixie,
I have been mystery shopping for years and most of the legit places NEVER ask you to pay a fee. If I have to pay then I will NOT work for them. BEWARE. I can't pass along some info if you'd like just feel free to email me.
